POLITICO’s menu for Booker — whose food stamp diet began Tuesday — included a slice of bacon, a meatball sandwich and a turkey sandwich, among non-vegetarian items such as carrots and yogurt. On Monday, Booker tweeted a photo of his grocery receipt, which included beans and corn and totaled $29.78, just under his maximum spending allotment for the week.

Book agreed to live off of food stamps to pay for a week’s worth of groceries, after a twitter followed challenged him to do so last month.

Nothing but a cheap stunt that the yellow press is falling head over heels for. Food stamps were meant to be a supplement, he is just pandering to the no income tax crowd, the same ones he needs to keep on the plantation so Dems can keep "winning" elections.
